Privacy Policy

This policy explains what ogimagechecker.com ("we", "the site") collects when you use the OG Image Checker, the OG Image Generator and the free API. The short version: no accounts, no tracking scripts, no newsletters, and nothing that identifies you.

What we do not collect

• We do not ask you to register, log in, or provide an email address.
• We do not collect or store the images you create with the generator — generation happens entirely in your browser.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics (Google, LLC) to understand aggregate usage — which pages are visited and how the site is used. Google Analytics sets its own cookies (_ga,_ga_*) and receives your IP address (truncated in the EEA) as part of that measurement. Data is retained per Google's standard settings and is not used by us for advertising. You can opt out withGoogle's official opt-out add-onor any browser blocking third-party cookies. Google's own handling of this data is described in theGoogle Privacy Policy.

What is stored when you check a URL

When you submit a URL to the checker, we fetch that page from our server (browsers cannot fetch third-party pages directly). We then store a minimal, anonymous record:

• The hostname of the URL you checked (e.g. example.com) and the URL path, with the result score and timestamp. This powers the "recently checked" list and the total counter.
• Rate-limiting keys. To prevent abuse, we store a cryptographic hash of your IP address combined with the current minute. The hash cannot be reversed to an IP address, and rows older than a few minutes are deleted automatically.

We deliberately do not store query strings or fragments of the URLs you check, and we do not store your IP address in a form that could identify you.

Server logs

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes standard request data (such as IP address and user agent) to deliver pages and to protect against abuse. That processing is governed byCloudflare's privacy policy.

Cookies

The site itself sets no cookies of its own. Google Analytics sets the_ga / _ga_* cookies described above to distinguish visits (they expire after up to 24 months). If display advertising is introduced at some point, third-party ad partners may set additional cookies; this page and the notice on the site will be updated before that happens.

Data retention

Check records (hostname + score + timestamp) are kept to power the counters and the recent list and are periodically pruned. Rate-limit hashes expire within minutes.

Children

The site is a developer tool and is not directed at children under 13 (or 16 in the EEA/UK).

Changes to this policy

If the site's data practices change, this page will be updated and the "last updated" date above revised.
